Starting your own indoor garden, does not have to be expensive. A really fun thing to do is to go around your house and look for a normal household items that you would normally throw away and reused them as seed starters.
I have here a collection of stuff that I have found around my house. An old cookie container, a deli container, the bottom of a soda bottle, the bottom of a water bottle, the obligatory coffee can, an old plastic cup, and two planters that I am going to reuse.
The soil that I have here is a really good organic potting soil. Mix in with some pit moss and some seeds starter soil and I have spruce it up with rabbit pellets.
Now, the really good thing about using rabbit pellets as your fertilizer is that you do not have to compose rabbit pellets. They can be use right away there. It is not a fertilizer that is going to burn your roots.
I love using this tub because it prevents me from getting dirt all over the place. All I have to do is any container I want to fill. I put in this tub, fill it and if anything spills out. It falls right back into the tub.
And now, for the fun the part, planting your seeds. I have got a variety of seeds that I am going to plant. This is a heritage called Big Boston and it is lettuce.

So, this is Big Boston Lettuce and after I plant all of my containers. I am going to water them up and I put this aside, so that I can remember. That I ever planted it.

The other coffee can here, I will put a little more dirt and I am going to plant a few. I am going to plant a few basil seed.
(Demo)
Okay, so now I have planted all of my reusable containers with amazing vegetables and flowers and herbs. I am going to water everything and I am going to place it on my new shelving unit.
